Combined heat and power (CHP)

Energy isn't just wasted in the places that we finally use it; most of the waste in our electricity system happens before it even reaches our homes and businesses.

Our power stations throw away the same amount of heat as is needed to provide hot water and heating for every building in the UK.

How does this happen? Well, generating electricity produces huge amounts of 'waste' heat, which is simply thrown away by our power stations - for example, as steam up the cooling towers.

On average, our large, centralised power stations throw away two thirds of the energy they generate.
